I am looking for a way to move the timeline a specific amount, scroll, etc. even if the Timeline window is not open. Is this possible?
→ 1 frame forward
← 1 frame backward
Shift+→ end frame
Shift+← start frame
↑ next keyframe
↓ previous keyframe
⎈ Ctrl⇧ Shift→ next marker
⎈ Ctrl⇧ Shift← previous marker
Shift+↑ 10 frames forward
Shift+↓ 10 frames back

10
Hold down the Alt button and start scrolling the Mouse Wheel.
Scrolling down will let you go forward in a Timeline, scrolling up works vice versa. You can do it in almost every window type you want and it works even if the Timeline window is not open.
Note: this shortcut works well in the Video Sequence, NLA, Dope Sheet and Graph editors also.
(I know this is an old question, but I got here while looking for an answer. So, just for the record...)
You can change the size of "steps" (or "jumps") Blender does (when pressing Left/Right, Shift + Up/Down, and even Alt + Wheel/Scroll) by changing the "Delta" parameter in the shortcuts "Frame Offset".
Path: Blender User Preferences > Input > search for a shortcut named "Frame Offset". Then change the "Delta" value to whatever you want (default is 10).
